I have daughters college graduation next weekend with 30 plus folks coming. I am going to do ham, roast beef and turkey for deli meats and then some other finger foods. I may have to take a few days off to get it all done.Duncan, SC

Looks like a good cook so far. What your target temp for the turkey breasts? What is your cooking temp?

300 grate temp 160 on the breasts. Brined 24 hours all indirect. Started cOoking about 430 and temp is now about 145 to 150. Won't be long now.Duncan, SC

I have had a slicer for a few years. I am a deer hunter and like to make jerky. Congratulations on getting one through college. This is my last of three and they have all made me proud. They did something I did or would not do.Duncan, SC

Nice cook Mross... Nice side's too. I'm getting ready to cook Mongolian pork chops soon. They have been Marinading since this morning. Check out the recipe... It's a killer marinade and dipping sauce. Village Idiot tried it the other day when I first posted it and loved it. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/grilled-mongolian-pork-chops/detail.aspx

I inject my turkey breasts with 'bitter orange marinate" and cook indirect at 350 degrees to an internal temperature of 160 degrees - rest and serve!! Always ask myself afterwords why we don't do turkey breats more often!!!

how long does it take?? -
It all depends on the size of the breast, but say a seven pounder might take one and a half hours, but always cook to temperature especially poultry since it can dry out if over cooked.

Where do you guys get your turkey breasts? My kroger or publix do not have any. How much a pound do they normally cost? Thanks._________________________________________________Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!Large BGE 2006, Mini Max 2014, 36" Blackstone, Anova Sous Vide

Around the Christmas and Thanksgiving holidays you can find them fresh, otherwise you have to settle for frozen but most big stores carry them the year round !! Just saw some here for $.99/pound frozen.

any thoughts on temperature when slicing with a deli slicer? i've got a couple going on in an hour - one with peri peri sauce, one with montreal chicken seasoning. plan on making some great sandwich meat! guessing the meat doesn't need to be frozen like bacon when slicing. but should they be refrigerated for a while first?
-
woops - definitely over salted. brined for 16 hours per ruhlman. did a rinse and then added montreal rub - way too salty. deli sliced after 1 hour in the fridge worked perfect. peri peri breast was fantastic though.

I wish I could find Turkey Breasts in Atlanta, the wife went to 3 stores today but no luck. Kroger told her they would have them during the holidays. Publix didn't have any either._________________________________________________Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!Large BGE 2006, Mini Max 2014, 36" Blackstone, Anova Sous Vide
